Salvage or Expert Salvage
Devts-Waver
This has puzzled me for a long time. I know that it is best to use an expert salavage kit when getting runes or items that are higly salvageable. However, if I have to max damage long swords, 8 req, and no mods and I use a salvage kit on one and an expert on the other, will I get the same results? So basicly my question is, when should you use an expert salvage kit compared to a regular one?

Depending of what you plan to do when you salvage, use whatever you want. If I need wood planks I will use salvage kit, I don't need that rare crafting. And the salvage kit cost less than the expert.
I don't know if it's real, but I did salvage the same item many times, few of them with expert and few of them with normal, in the end, I received the same amount of material on both kit. I was salvaging frosted griffon wings, and received 2 feathers on each of them.

this is entirely speculation, but every answer you get will be.
Swords/Axes/Heavy Headed Hammers - Expert
Small Headed Hammers/bows/staffs/wands/ - regular
Protective Icons/Grim Cestas - Expert
Armor AL29 or lower - Regular
Armore AL above 29 - expert
Hides of any kind - Expert(if I have more than 4)
Anything with an upgrade(unless it's a junk upgrade) - Expert

I never use expert on icons/cestas/focus items... it always results in some crappy common material like granite. For one handed weapons like canes/rods I almost always get a steel ingot when using expert.

i get good materials from weapons that have high damage, if its max damage is 4 or less away from the weapon class max damage i use expert, otherwise i just nor salvage it.
Sir Skullcrasher
getting a upgrade item from a weapons or item is 50/50 chance. This happened to me lot of time, i got weapons with fiery hilt, or poisoner bow string and when i use expert salvage kit (that the 400 gold kit) it sometime give me iron ingots, or wood plank... but other time i get lucky and get the upgrades instead.
Just be sure you got the expert salvage kit whenever you want to extract things like a upgrades. Regular salvage is good for getting runes from items or weapons and to get materials.

you need to expert salvage runes from items

If you salvage a plain sword, nothing on it, is there an advantage to using an Expert kit?
Or will it always give raw, common materials?
I know Expert Salvage on Salvage Items sometimes gives rare materials, wasn't sure if that worked on non-Salvage items.

every weapon in the game has a chance of producing rare crafting materials via expert salvage...you just need to figure out how common it is. Swords yield steel quite often while hammers have a much lower probability of salvaging into steel.
I believe that scrolls ALWAYS salvage into parchment...I have yet to expert salvage a scroll and get anything else.

I only carry expert kits now. If you can afford it I think it's better.
